Will U.S. commercial crude oil inventories for the week ending Sep 18, 2026 be above 418 million barrels?

If U.S. commercial crude oil inventories for the week ending Sep 18, 2026 are strictly above 418 million barrels, then the market resolves to Yes. The Underlying is the U.S. Commercial Crude Oil (Excl. Lease Stock) inventory level reported by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) for the week ending Sep 18, 2026. This measure excludes crude oil held in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). EIA reports the statistic in thousand barrels. Values stated in millions of barrels will be converted directly from the EIA-reported value. The market will use the first EIA publication for the specified week. Subsequent revisions will not affect resolution.
